Ex-ISI Chief Faiz Hameed Gets 14 Years from Military Court

  • Former ISI chief Faiz Hameed sentenced to 14 years rigorous imprisonment by a military court.
  • This marks the first time a Pakistani ISI chief has been court-martialled.
  • Charges include engaging in political activities, violating the Official Secrets Act, misuse of authority, and causing wrongful loss.
  • Hameed's close ties with former PM Imran Khan and alleged role in the 9 May 2023 anti-Army protests contributed to his downfall.

Why It Matters: Pakistan's military court sentencing an ex-ISI chief marks a historic internal power shift.
